Domestic Waste Collection

Harrogate Borough Council provides a weekly back door, black sack service to its residents.

Where will you collect my rubbish from?

Unless otherwise advised, we will collect your rubbish from the back of your property and leave a maximum of two sacks in replacement.

Do collection times differ around Bank Holidays and Christmas?

Yes, some minor changes are made to the collection schedule around these holiday periods.

These collections may be slightly ahead of, or behind the advertised programme so please be patient.

Disruption may also occur during bad weather and industrial action.

The links below provide you with the revised schedules.

• Domestic Waste: Christmas Schedule
• Domestic Waste: Easter Schedule
• Domestic Waste: May Day Bank Holiday Schedule
• Domestic Waste: Late Spring Bank Holiday Schedule
• Domestic Waste: August Bank Holiday Schedule

We also print the revised schedules on the sacks, as well as deliver leaflets to all households to advise you of changes to collection days.
